The above verse yields jolly good support that the anal wart is certainly God's invention! Pestilence = contagious warts, can not be eaten = permanent block to sodomy. Again, a fulfilled prophecy that proves the Bible True™. These are exciting times, magnificent times, times that end all time! And a tiny wart can become a sign of Jesus' power over sin!
Yours in Christ,

You speak truth!
Another example of Christ striking at the anuses of sinners, at least metaphorically, via the fig motif is seen in Matthew 21:19.
Quote:
And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

Obviously the fig is highly symbolic of the barren, fruitless anus of the hellbound sodomite. It is a wonder and a marvel that Christ's compassion extends even unto those dank, sphinctral depths, and that He takes the time from His hectic schedule to administer the blessing of anal warts to those in such dire need, giving them the opportunity to finally bear some Godly fruit, lest they burn forever in the fiery lake. His mercy is boundless!
